Creating Crispy Air Fryer Churro Bites is a breeze with these straightforward steps. Follow along to achieve the perfect bite-sized goodness:
1. Prepare the Dough: In a medium saucepan, combine butter, water, granulated sugar, and salt. Heat over medium until the mixture begins to boil.
2. Mix in Flour: Once boiling, remove from heat and carefully stir in the flour until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated. Finally, stir in vanilla and baking powder.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 5 minutes.
4. Pipe the Dough: Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. For bite-sized shapes, pipe small churro bites directly onto parchment paper or a silicone mat.
5. Air Fry the Bites: Place the piped churro bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for about 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
6. Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Mix: In a small bowl, combine additional sugar with ground cinnamon.
7. Coat the Bites: Once cooked, remove the churro bites from the air fryer and immediately toss them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly coated.
8. Serve Fresh: Enjoy the churro bites warm, paired with your favorite dipping sauce!
